Feeling Hot hot hot!

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

Gossard SuperboostFirst clutches, then shoes and now lingerie – hot pink is here to stay! I believe a good spring (or is it summer already?) clean should always start with your underwear drawer and what better to replace the old than with this stunning new Superboost Satin Plunge Bra by Gossard at Lingerieplease.co.uk.

A beautiful bra like this one is not to be hidden away! During the day, try wearing it under a bright white vest to show off a subtle hint of pink. For cooler evenings, a glimpse of the hot pink straps under a short black strappy dress will have hearts racing!

Katherine Hamnett ToteKatharine Hamnett is well known for her powerful slogan t shirts that raise concern for the environment. However, Hamnett has recently branched out into new areas by producing an accessory range to encourage a more ethical way of thinking.

All of Hamnett’s collections have been produced with as little impact on the environment as possible, for example this tote is made from organic cotton and has been printed with environmentally friendly inks.

Marc Jacobs Rana BagNow that summer is on its way I think its about time to get funkier with bright colours and accessories! I just saw this Marc Jacobs Rana evening bag over at Net-a-porter and immediately pictured myself strutting down the road in my flip flops and oversized shades feeling fabulous with this gorgeous accessory on my shoulder!

The spring catwalk has been full of neon and fluro, I love the way Mark Jacobs has taken this style and added his special touch creating a classic bag with sport like strap that can be removed to form an elegant clutch if preferred. The pink bag is made from leather with a frog shaped clasp, suede frame and silky satin lining. Does it get any better than this?

It is the perfect spring bag and will look fab with those fresh spring neutrals.

A great bag is the key to a great outfit and this bag is definitely capable of making any outfit! To purchase this key piece, check out Asos, it costs £595 but is definitely a keeper!


Ethnic Jewellery

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

Topshop Ethnic NecklaceThe ethnic style is always a great look for summer; this would explain why it always seems to be a hot trend every year! I think the best way to portray this look is with accessories; stacking bangles, layering lots of multicoloured beaded necklaces is just a couple of essential ways you can achieve this look.

If you are unsure of what necklaces to layer and what bangles to stack, Topshop has created the ultimate ethnic necklace to help you along the way! It’s a great accessory that combines many rows of individual beaded necklaces to make a statement and really enhance that ethnic look.

For £20 I think it is well worth the money, Buy yours today from Topshop online.


Cellulite Busting Tights!

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

SkinKiss TightsSummer is fast approaching, and those cosy warm jackets and woolly scarves are the first to go, which means one thing; it’s time to start shaving our legs and preparing for the return of short skirts and strappy vests. I like the sun as much as the next person, but it can be a little daunting bearing flesh after so many months hiding it away. Here’s where SkinKiss Caffeine Tights step in. Available from Tightsplease, these revolutionary 15 denier sheer tights have the ability to slim the wearer’s bum, tum and thighs by up to 2 1/2cm, thus helping to create an irresistible pair of pins for the summer months ahead of us.

How do they work? The warmth of the body causes the caffeine infused tights to act on the skin and tighten and firm the tissue. They even reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Available in colours black and skin tone these can be worn either at work or on an evening out, so there’s no excuse. Go to www.tightsplease.co.uk for more information and to order your pack with free delivery today!


Blossom with Missoni Accessories!

Missoni NecklaceI am a huge fan of Missoni, their spring collection is absolutely stunning this year, which is mostly due to their fabulous prints!

However as I was browsing the Missoni website, I came across their accessory collection and was blown away! They have some really beautiful jewellery that has been inspired by nature, blossoming pendants on necklaces and earrings in lilacs pinks and yellows are so pretty and delicate. In contrast they have produced some really chunky necklaces out of geometric shapes, these are great too; real statement jewellery!
